November 02, 2007 By: smmellott Category: flickr, picnik, pictures, tools 1 Comment →

Not too long ago, I wrote a post about Picnik – A Cool Free Tool to Edit Your Online Pictures. At the time, Picnik was allowing users to try out their premium tools for free.

Vacation 2.0 Flittr Experiment and Kodak EasyShare Software Problem

October 10, 2007 By: smmellott Category: flickr, travel No Comments →

My experiment with ‘flittring’ (taking pictures as it happens and uploading to flickr, like twitter but with photos) is working very well. My husband is thrilled to be able to see what we are doing as it happens.

I decided to keep my real time phone camera pictures separate from my Kodak pictures so you can see my digital camera pictures at my Flickr set called Florida 2007

Online Photo Updates: Flickr + Twitter = Flittr?

October 08, 2007 By: smmellott Category: flickr, photos, pictures, travel No Comments →

I have just gone on vacation for 10 days in Florida visiting my sister and my mom. So I thought I would try an experiment where I would do online updates like twitter, only using photos in Flickr.

Web 2.0: Flickr isn’t really that free – Who Knew?

September 09, 2007 By: smmellott Category: coverpop, flickr, kodak, mashups, plugin, web 2.0 2 Comments →

Flickr, the online photo gallery is THE web 2.0 tool for putting your photos online. Many people use it and it seems that most pictures you find online are stored on Flickr. There are a few other online galleries such as Shutterfly and kodakgallery (that I used because I have a digital Kodak camera that interfaces with the Kodak Gallery).

And since I’ve used Kodak Gallery mostly… Continue reading | 2 Comments

Celebrity 2.0 – Wil Wheaton is Web 2.0

But what makes him interesting is his love and knowledge of technology and his leading edge use of Web 2.0 tools. Here is the wikipedia entry that talks… Continue reading
